I'd rather not reprogram my radio if I can avoid it. I just got it how I want it. haha

Ugh, I stink of gas so bad. Got it all over my face. Glad I found some safety glasses.
That'll happen. lol

I didn't flip the interia switch when I did mine.

You left it pressurized when you did it? Bet that was an unholy mess.

No I released the pressure from the schrader valve on the fuel rail. You don't need to flip the interia switch to swap out the fuel filter.

I too got a some fuel on my face. It was lovely.

Ahh, the previous owner of mine installed aftermarket fuel rails. I couldn't find a schrader valve on them. That must be why it only took 20 seconds for my old truck to die, I relieve most of the pressure from the schrader valve.
